About the artwork
Hossein Valamanesh is an artist who migrated from Iran to Australia to be free from social and political oppression. He participated in the first ETAT along with Australian-born Angela Valamanesh, who was influenced by a wide range of disciplines including science, history, and philosophy. The chair, with its elements of animals, humans and artificial materials seem like a condensation of our world. The carved footprints in this newly created pedestal responding to the space of Australia House calls attention to human absence.
